To provide a fuel cell system capable of inhibiting application of expansion stress, due to heat of high temperature components, on an unexpected part.SOLUTION: A fuel cell system 100 including an enclosure 1 receiving high temperature components, including at least one of a fuel cell 2 and a reformer 3, is provided. In the fuel cell system 100, multiple uniaxial mounts 9, displaceable only in one direction, are fixed to the enclosure 1, the high temperature components received in the enclosure 1 are fixed to the enclosure 1 via the multiple uniaxial mounts 9, and the multiple uniaxial mounts 9 are placed so that the mount axis lines, extending in the displaceable direction of each uniaxial mount 9, intersect at one point or at multiple points in the neighborhood of a desired position. The uniaxial mount 9 includes a support part 92 and a load receiving member 91, and an elastic mechanism 12 placed between the support part 92 and the load receiving member 91, and consisting of at least one of a first spring 97 bearing the load or a second spring 98 for regulating inclination of the load receiving member 91.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10 【課題】予期しない部位に高温部品の熱による膨張応力がかかることを抑制可能な燃料電池システムを提供する。【解決手段】燃料電池２及び改質器３の少なくとも一方を含む高温部品を収納する筐体１を備える燃料電池システム１００が提供される。この燃料電池システム１００では、筐体１には一方向のみに変位可能な複数の一軸性マウント９が固定され、筐体１に収納される高温部品は、複数の一軸性マウント９を介して筐体１に固定され、複数の一軸性マウント９は、各一軸性マウント９の変位可能な方向に伸ばしたマウント軸線どうしが一点または所望の位置近傍の複数の点で交わるように配置される。一軸性マウント９は、支持部９２と荷重受部材９１と、支持部９２と荷重受部材９１との間に配置され荷重負担を担う第１バネ９７または荷重受部材９１の傾きを規制する第２バネ９８の少なくとも一方からなる弾性機構１２とを備える。【選択図】図１０
